Uber Disney Tips | The following are some useful tips of using Uber services at Disney:

Tip 1: The average cost of using Uber services at the Walt Disney World ranges between $8.00 to $18.00 for a single trip using the uberX service. Uber’s trip cost is said to be about one third to half of the cost of hiring an ordinary taxi service for a similar distance.

Tip 2: The average time an individual has to wait to be picked up by an Uber is between four to eight minutes. This is fairly short on all standards.

Tip 3: Currently each and every single security check point and all Cast Members of the parking plaza in Walt Disney World are well vast with the Uber taxi service. This makes them willingly permit drivers to pass through and even exempt them from paying parking fees (on most occasions). All that is required of them is to display their identification card and clarify that they want to drop-off guests.

Tip 4: Visitors are advised to desist from showing their Annual Pass or even vouchers utilized at the parking plaza. If they do, their drivers will be given directions to park their vehicles at the regular parking lot. This is undesirable because it is located far off the park front entrance as compared to the drop-off points for guests.

Tip 5: UberBLACK drivers are the only Uber vehicles with exclusive rights at Orlando International Airport (MCO). With adequate planning, drop-offs by the standard UberX and pickups can also be arranged especially if the particular vehicle have a high drop-off frequency (ask your driver). Either way, both Uber services are much faster compared to the Magical Express service in Walt Disney World.

Tip 6: Uber has now launched a new service in Orlando called Uber+Car Seat. This new service offer parents at Walt Disney World an Uber vehicle that has a car seat in it. You will need to select this option in order for the correct vehicle type to be sent. On a rare chance that a vehicle with a car seat is not available, the only thing you can do is try waiting a few minutes and see will one come available.

Tip 7: To minimize the time you have to wait for your pick up by an Uber vehicle, ensure you pin mark where you wish to be picked up as you walk to the location. The only catch is that you should be able to arrive at the spot before the driver does. If you use this technique, experience indicates that the time you will take to wait for your ride is an average of two to three minutes.

Tip 8: Send a message to the driver after making a request for an Uber vehicle to inform them of your precise location (assuming you are not at the main lobby). This is because Global Positioning System (GPS) is sometimes unreliable.

Tip 9: Increase in pricing is becoming a thing of the past as driver numbers increase in the Orlando region. In case a surge in pricing occurs, there is a high likelihood that will occur between 8-10 am in the morning hours and between 9.30-10.30 pm in the evening.

Tip 10: If you leave an item behind in your driver’s vehicle, then you should contact your driver asap. Go back to the trip’s profile via the app and follow the prompts to report a lost item. The app will then connect you with the driver.
